Hi Mark.
yes to all your questions.
I shut the server ctrl C and restart it
and I am executing my commands when in /home/sherab/ 

[i type the tiddlers in my /home/sherab/thunderwiki/tiddlers/NewTiddler.tid

thanks.

Could you please share with me your own way of writting tiddlers with a 
text editor and how do you succeed in doing it - then i will be able to 
imitate you successfully[i hope]
cheers
